- Score AI-generated and human work samples against those criteria, with detailed written justifications for every score
- Apply consistent, evidence-based judgment so that scores are reproducible and defensible
- Incorporate structured feedback from senior reviewers and iterate quickly on your work
- 5+ years of professional data science experience in industry
- Background in business operations, product, or growth data science at top-tier technology companies
- Deep fluency in experiment design and A/B testing, metric definition, SQL/Python analysis, and communicating findings to executive stakeholders
- Exceptionally strong written communication
- Detail-oriented, consistent, and comfortable having your judgment reviewed and calibrated against peers
- Prior experience with AI training, evaluation, or human-data projects is a strong plus
- Submit your resume or relevant technical background to get started
- Qualified applicants may be asked to complete a brief technical assessment or submit additional information
We consider all qualified applicants without regard to legally protected characteristics and provide reasonable accommodations upon request.
